Proposal to Negotiate to Support the Needs of the Country as a Legislator

As a legislator, it is crucial to always put the needs of the country first before anything. One needs to listen, think, and vote his or her conscience. When negotiating to support the needs of the people, it is essential to note that the people will not always agree with you, but they will respect you for thinking through the issues and reaching a common ground (Clarke, 2016). As a legislator, I would ensure that my legislature is responsive to public demands and needs and bring the opposing side to the table to negotiate for the needs of the country. The negotiation will involve exchanges of opinions and building consensus. In the proposes of negotiating for the country’s needs, it is crucial to be prepared to compromise, deal with opposition, and trade the legislation that supports the needs of the country so that others can buy into a settlement.Most importantly, the negotiation to support the needs of the country will include enough input from citizens and organized groups in law-making decisions. Besides, I would ensure that the degree of partnership is reasonable and that the majority party possesses enough clout to ensure that things get done (Clarke, 2016). Moreover, it is also vital to ensure that the legislature is deliberative and allows for a give and take and the open exchange of ideas at all phases of the informal legislative process.ReferencesClarke, D.
